Blogging About Your Braces Treatment

If you are thinking about getting braces, then you have
probably done a few Google searches that have resulted in patient’s blogging
about their entire treatment.
Blogging has become quite the hype in the past couple years with many
patients tracking their treatment weekly online. So why is blogging beneficial?

A blog is similar to a diary, except it is online and for
everyone to read. Your
readers can interact with you with by posting comments after each post you
make. As a patient going
through orthodontic treatment, a blog is a great way to track your treatment
and add some excitement along the road to your new smile.

There are many free websites that offer blogging platforms
for you to use. We recommend
BracesReview Braces Blogs because it is simple and there are hundreds of other
bloggers all in one central location.
This will allow you to post your own ideas, while commenting on others.

If you prefer to have your own website, than you can simply
purchase your domain name at Godaddy.com, buy hosting at Hostgator.com and then
install the best blog platform which is Wordpress. This is a great avenue to take, however there are some
minor cost involved.

A blog post can be about whatever you want. If you had an adjustment, experiencing
discomfort, funny story, etc. It
is up to you and this is what will make your blog unique. Your readers will appreciate your
honesty, sense of humor or just quirky attitude.

It is a standard to post pictures. Pictures are going to come into play when you start
comparing your results within timeframes.
There is nothing more exciting than actually seeing the movement from
week 1 to week 8 as an example.
A picture within each blogpost will go a long way. You may want to just snap a photo at
each appointment

By blogging you are also in a way paying it forward. That is giving others guidance and hope
that may be in a situation that is similar to yours. We have seen blogs work as great information tools for
those considering orthodontics, as they are unbiased directly from the
patient.

If you are thinking about getting braces than we highly
recommend you journal the entire journey.
Whether you do it online via blogging or in your own private diary, it
is an excellent way to add joy and education to your treatment. Being interactive at your visits will
help you learn more about the process and education is never harmful.
